Pink Saturday - Tip, Giveaway, Autumn Photos

iphone

Happy Pink Saturday! A huge thank you to Beverly at How Sweet the Sound for hosting this get together today!

This is my iphone with a pink gel sleeve.  A couple of weeks ago I figured out that it would make lots more sense to put my grocery list on it since the phone is always with me. Always. No more looking for my list to write something down.

This is my list for this week.

Saturday we have to hitch up the wagon, pack a lunch and head on into town for shopping so I’m sure more will get added along the way. So easy!

Y’all knew this, right?



ra give This week I am featuring  another Pink Saturday participant, Dawn from C & G Designs. If you click on the picture, it will take you to her site so you can help celebrate her 500th post! Dawn is a fellow New England blogger who I count on for a post every day with one project or another. It is the best blog to inspire you to keep on keeping on. A great follow.

Have a wonderful day! Give a Pink Saturday hug to those in the middle of the list.  And, if you love autumn in Vermont, I posted pics and stories all week. Check below.

I do love the pictures you've posted..and I love the idea of a grocery list on your phone. What a great idea. Happy Pink Saturday and have a lovely weekend.

I have a Palm phone and I absolutely love it. I keep all my lists and memos on it. It even records my voice if I don't have time to jot it down. Technology can be great (at times!) Happy Pink Saturday. I'm going now to visit Dawn.
Hugs and Glitter,
Patti

you'll make a very fashionable shopper with a grocery list looking hot in pink. and you will come away with alot more stuff that wasn't on your list. happy pink!!

susan said...

I am still one of the unfortunate few without an iphone. I'm afraid the technology would be wasted on me :) I do alway lose or forget my list and this would be one solution. Glad to know I can get a pink sleeve if I get an iphone :) Have a happy pink Saturday!

Barb said...

hi Nancy.
regarding turned photos- I have not heard of Live Writer, but will check it out.
Also, i thin\k the updated blogger has easier functions for photos. Will try that again.

Thanks for the help, and for the visit.

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY!

g said...

Great idea - and I love the pink sleeve!

I have recently become a phone luddite, since CA changed its laws so you can't use it in the car, I hardly ever use my phone anymore (which probably says something about my past use....)

But my husband has been nagging me to stay more in touch, so maybe I will try a new phone and sync myself back up!

Happy Pink Saturday!

Fleur de Bee said...

Hi Nancy! Oh dear where would be be without our iPhone haha! What a fun Case for it. I will have to look fo that one as I love it! I hope you have a beautiful weekend! It snowed here if you can believe it!!


Happy Pink Saturday, I am not participating this week but wanted to come by and say hello!

Cathy said...

Nancy,

I adore you pink Iphone. I have had a cell phone for years, but don't know how to use it. The only person I would ever call is my DH and he is always at work. But..... he just showed me how to use it this morning since we are on our way to Disney to celebrate our 10th anniversary. I figured I'm going to want to find him when he wanders around the park and I loose him while I'm shopping! lol

Have a great weekend.

Angelika said...

Beverly said...

Happy Pink Saturday, Nancy. And, thank you for introducing everyone to Dawn. She is fabulously talented.

I like your phone tip about the lists.

Lynn@ The Vintage Nest said...

Great idea Nancy. I have notes everywhere. :) happy Pink Saturday.

caren said...

Who needs to write anything anymore....now if we could only get technology to go to the grocery store and then put it all away! Happy Pink Saturday!

Charlene said...

I'm so glad you came to visit & saw the photos from Round Top. Yes, Magnolia Pearl was something to see! She had the whole thing fixed so cute. But, she was none to happy for me to take a few photos. Glad you enjoyed them. I had to do it... there are some who can't make it to see in person!

I went down & looked at some of your fall foliage photos & they are wonderful!!!! Also, loved your necklace from LuLu. She's a HOOT! Just love her! Enjoy wearing it.

Candy said...

Good idea to link your iphone and shopping list, you'll never forget it.
Thanks for stopping by my pink garden today.It is raining cats and dogs this afternoon. A great time to snuggle down and visit around the world. First stop is going to be at Dawn's. Thanks for the introduction ;-)

Michelle said...

Great idea for grocery list, I love my i-phone and use all the features. Happy PS.

GWENDOLYN said...

I am not so good with gadgets. I only use my phone as a phone, while everyone else in my family, does so much more with their's. What a great idea to put you shopping list on yours. Happy Pink Saturday!
Blessings!

Elena said...

Using your phone to add your shopping list is a great idea. You're way ahead of me - it takes me ages to catch up with the latest techno trends, lol.

Happy pink saturday!

ciao for now,

My Carolina Kitchen said...

Love your little pink sleeve for your Iphone.

This is my first visit to your lovely blog. I need to do some exploring after I finish this comment to see more about hitching up your wagon and going to town for shopping. Sounds interesting......
When we lived in the Bahamas, we went to town in our boat for groceries only once a week on the day the weekly freight boat arrived with the supplies from the US.

Hope you had a wonderful Pink Saturday.

Wow, what a swish phone! I am so impressed you can do a shopping list on it... I don't even text! I get in a screaming temper with the predictive text and the capitals/lower case/numerals thingie.

Just been to look at Linens & Laurels - I can see how hard you have worked. It looks great now, a real class act.

Happy Pink Saturday (I know, I know, late again...)

Sares said...

What a great idea, I guess now you don't have an excuse if you forget something! Neat phone. Happy Pink Nancy and I'm on my way to visit Dawn!

Lynn said...

People are still coming by!
Thanks!!

Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoriti said...

Happy pink week! I wish I ordered a pink cell phone but a cover is the next best thing. Good tip!

Mary said...

Hey Nancy, love your phone list idea! I hadn't thought of it~but,then I don't have an ipod or whatever that is. Still,a great idea! I have to make a list for just about anything I do these days.
And your pink gel cover is so cute;)

Love those autumn colors!

Yes,the lamp in my mosaic is mid-century or around that. We found it at St.Vinnie's and the shade at Salvation Army for $2!

Hope a great week is yours~
